To increase or decrease the temperature in the cabin, press the "Warmer" or "Cooler" keys, respectively. The purpose of the keys in the bottom row from right to left:
- "OFF": Turns off the air conditioner. No air comes in. Use this button to prevent polluted air or dust from coming into the car. Do not leave the air conditioner in this position for a long time.
- "ECON": Use this button when there is no need to reduce the temperature in the cabin. The blower is off - cold or warm outside air enters the cabin. In this position of the air conditioner, fuel is saved. If the cabin is hot or the windows are fogged up, press the "AUTO" button.

When the outside temperature is cold, heated air enters the interior through the air intakes under the windshield. This air blows on the side windows of the doors and the bottom of the interior. When the outside temperature is high, cooled air enters through the central and side adjustable nozzles. The ventilation mode is set automatically.
- "HI": The fan operates at maximum power. The interior is heated or cooled more intensively than in the "AUTO" position.
- windshield button: Most of the air entering the cabin is directed to the inside of the windshield and the side windows of the doors. The fan operates at maximum speed.

- OUTSIDE TEMP: Outside temperature. When you press this key, the outside air temperature is displayed. When the outside temperature rises, the display changes by 1°C every 2-3 minutes. When the outside temperature drops, the new temperature is displayed immediately.
